Abstract :
This paper proposes the application of a matrix converter to a PM generator for power quality compensation, such as reactive power compensation, harmonic current and power interruption. The novel point of this work is that the matrix converter provides reactive power with harmonic current. Simulated and experimental results confirm that the matrix converter can maintain high performance as same as a conventional active filter and an uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
